Last we saw from Fool’s Paradise, it was something along the lines of a sexy Jedi Jesus. It’s a little harder to exactly pinpoint the narrative this time, but a first guess might be Barbie the robot-alien-headed bounty hunter who likes to keep her boobs well ventilated. This marks 12 rounds of Alan Ng-designed Jango Keiko dolls […]

We’ll throw our support to the Occupy folks — they may not have all the answers, but at least they’re […]
